Maybe its the recent influx of foreign talent from soccer-playing countries. Maybe poor officiating is to blame. For whatever reason, the flop is more prevalent than ever in the NBA, and the Spurs have it down pat.

Yes, there are players from every team that exaggerate fouls and throw themselves to the floor. But the Spurs have won four of the past 10 championships, and their mastery of the flop has helped spread its cause. Shameful.
